Translating Rimbaud's Illuminations is a critique of the
assumptions which currently underlie our thinking on literary
translation. It offers an alternative vision; extending the
parameters of literary translation by showing that such translation
is itself a form of experimental creative writing. It also provides
a reassessment of Rimbaud's creative impulses and specifically his
prose poems, the Illuminations. In the expanding field of
translation studies, a brilliant and demanding book such as this
has a valuable place. In addition, it also provides some
fascinating 'hands on' translation work of a very practical kind.
Published as a sequel to the author's Translating Baudelaire (UEP,
2000), it will become part of the canon.
